Hm... the case works for me: $ psql ... Welcome to psql 8.1.18 (server 7.4.26), the PostgreSQL interactive terminal. Type: \copyright for distribution terms \h for help with SQL commands \? for help with psql commands \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query \q to quit WARNING: You are connected to a server with major version 7.4, but your psql client is major version 8.1. Some backslash commands, such as \d, might not work properly. regression=# One thing to check is whether you have a ~/.psqlrc containing commands that wouldn't work against the older server. Failing that, I'm going to bet that this is a firewall issue of some sort. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
